Open the file named web.config in the ASP.NET project. The value of requestEncoding attribute in globalization element is “utf-8”. It means the requested texts were encoded as UTF-8 character set. Because SCO5.05 does not support UTF-8, therefore the requested texts where changed.
VB:
Public Shared Function unicode_iso8859(ByVal src As String) As String
Dim iso As Encoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(“iso8859-1”)
Dim unicode As Encoding = Encoding.UTF8
Dim unicodeBytes As Byte() = unicode.GetBytes(src)
Return iso.GetString(unicodeBytes)
End Function
Public Shared Function iso8859_unicode(ByVal src As String) As String
Dim iso As Encoding = Encoding.GetEncoding(“iso8859-1”)
Dim unicode As Encoding = Encoding.UTF8
Dim isoBytes As Byte() = iso.GetBytes(src)
Return unicode.GetString(isoBytes)
End Function
label1.Text = iso8859_unicode(MyString)
